Default Black Background Color

Hey All, I have searched and looked at the Boom manual and still can't figure out how to make my background black again.
It's a 2018 SG with the 6.5 Boom head unit. I did a "Pre Calib. Reset" per Biketronics and I now have an orange background.

Can anyone help me get back to black?.....(Great, now I got that song in my head)

Its in the settings under contrast I thought. I also thought there was a quick switch button like holding the info button for 5 sec or something that would toggle the screen contrast between dark and light.

It's a toggle I think. It changes from dark to white based on available sunlight. Like me, I keep it on the white background during the day, then when it's dark the dark background comes on.
